Ah, this...

Chu Shen is too familiar with this. The officials, gentry, and wealthy merchants in Nanping City have used this trick to establish cooperation with themselves. After all, these people are born to do this. I didn't expect that even the Dantai family, a prestigious family in the cultivation world, would play this game.

Oh, so the Dantai family is also focused on commerce. Well, that's fine. Where there are people, there is a world of rivers and lakes. Isn't the cultivation world another rivers and lakes?

The only problem is...

"Dantai Gong, I already have multiple concubines."

"That's not a problem. A man should have multiple wives and concubines."

"But I also have a fiancée."

"Who is she?"

"She is the niece of the head of the Taiping Sect, and also his closed-door disciple."

"Taiping Sect? Who are they? Why haven't I heard of them? I do know about the Taiping Tao."

"They are a branch of the Taiping Tao."

Dantai Zhonggu looked at Chu Shen with a strange expression and said, "Nephew, your future seems bright. Why did you get engaged to a girl from such an unknown small sect? Let me advise you, they are not worthy. You should break off the engagement."

So, this is what it means to call someone "nephew"?

Dantai Zhonggu is really good at following the trend!

Chu Shen sighed, saying, "So, worldly reputation can blind one's eyes. My fiancée is a disciple of the Yujing Platform."

Dantai Zhonggu:

The Yujing Platform is a holy Earth Grade sect that is on par with the Langxuan Heavenly Palace, and its prestige is even more prosperous outside.

Speaking of the Langxuan Heavenly Palace, it still has a kind of "scholarly temperament" and is not known for its combat power. It is more famous for its strong academic atmosphere, often producing academic giants and various monographs that the entire cultivation world looks up to, giving a feeling of being a mentor of the cultivation world's civilization.

The Yujing Platform is different. This holy sect is unquestionably powerful, and it is most famous for its abilities in fate calculation, divination, and other aspects. These abilities may seem a bit mystical, like fortune tellers, but anyone who knows how terrifying they are wouldn't dare provoke them.

Originally, those who were wealthy and had good luck, if they offended these people who peered into fate and manipulated luck, would end up in ruin and misfortune. Are you afraid?

Anyway, Dantai Zhonggu didn't want to provoke such enemies.

"Sir... Sir's talent and beauty..."

Hearing the other party's forced words, Chu Shen wanted to laugh in his heart.

But Dantai Zhonggu really didn't want to miss out on the Spirit Nourishing Pill and the new refining techniques. As he said, since new things have already appeared, they must possess the power to break the existing balance. If he didn't want to be swept into the garbage dump in the future, he must find a way to master them.

"Since my nephew already has a fiancée, it wouldn't be good for my Dantai family to do something that would damage his reputation..."

How about this, I have a daughter who is alone in her family, twenty-eight years old, with a beautiful and extraordinary appearance, and her cultivation aptitude is also quite good. Although she is not as promising as my nephew, she also has some special family knowledge. Coupled with my wife's love and careful care, treating her like a treasure and not sparing any spiritual materials for her cultivation, she should catch my nephew's eye.

"Wouldn't it be better if I intercede for her parents and agree to let her become my concubine, is that okay?"

Although the Dantai family is a merchant family, they are the pinnacle of merchant families, comparable to large sects. The daughters of the family naturally have prestigious identities, so it is absolutely forbidden for them to become concubines unless the other party is a force stronger than the Dantai family, such as the Holy Son or even the Holy Lord, the master of a top sect.

Although Chu Shen has obtained new technology that can shake the foundation of the Dantai family, it hasn't actually shaken it yet, right? Dantai Zhonggu also needs to consider the external influence and cannot let the family's reputation be trampled upon.

But it's not a problem for the relatives of his wife's family, even though she has the identity of a Miss, she is ultimately an outsider. Marrying her off as a wife or concubine is within the Dantai family's prerogative. Besides, Chu Shen himself is not without a background, as long as he is worthy, others cannot criticize the Dantai family and call Dantai Zhonggu "cruel".

With this, the identity issue is resolved, and the relationship through marriage is established. As long as this lonely girl can still remember the kindness of the Dantai family, Chu Shen, this outsider, will eventually have a connection with the Dantai family. Isn't this the basis for cooperation?

Furthermore, let's talk about the new pill formula and technology that Chu Shen has mastered. Isn't this an opportunity for the family members to cooperate with each other and grow stronger?

Perfect.

However, after Dantai Zhonggu finished speaking, he didn't seem pleased with his "clever plan". Instead, he had a face of regret and looked at Chu Shen with a somewhat dangerous gaze.

This is a problem. Is that wife's family's lonely girl so precious to Dantai Zhonggu?

Chu Shen can clearly feel that if he were to say the word "no," it would be crossing the bottom line and offending the other party, even if it means offending Dantai Zhonggu to the extreme!

It seems that I have underestimated the foresight and determination of this owner of Fuyuan Pavilion.

On the other hand, having such a clear-minded and visionary collaborator doesn't seem bad either.

After weighing it in his heart, Chu Shen finally looked up at Dantai Zhonggu and said, "I want a twenty percent stake in Fuyuan Pavilion."

Dantai Zhonggu looked deeply at him, knowing that the other party was about to discuss more in-depth conditions. He gritted his teeth and said, "Okay!"

Chu Shen continued, "The formula for the Spirit Nurturing Pill is not important, but the refining technique is crucial. It must be mastered by someone absolutely reliable."

Dantai Zhonggu confidently said, "Rest assured, our Dantai family has cultivated our own alchemists, all of whom are absolutely reliable candidates."

Chu Shen knew that in the cultivation world, especially among those aristocratic families, they possessed some special forbidden techniques. For example, the core alchemists attached to the Dantai family must have been subjected to such restrictions. The confidentiality of this aspect didn't need to be mentioned by him.

He just wanted to emphasize the importance of the extraordinary skills he possessed.

"I also need the Fuyuan Pavilion to provide me with the resources I need, including but not limited to spiritual materials!"

Dantai Zhonggu looked at him solemnly, "As my son-in-law, how could the Dantai family mistreat their own son? I only have one request, and that is for you to treat our daughter, even if she is just a concubine, well."

Chu Shen could guarantee this point, "I will never mistreat any of my women!"

"Good," Dantai Zhonggu slammed the table, "It's settled then!"

Chu Shen nodded, "It's settled!"

"Do you want some wine to celebrate?"

"There's no need for that," Chu Shen looked at the sky outside, "I have to go to the Fumu Mountain Port."

Dantai Zhonggu laughed heartily, "You are already my Dantai family's son-in-law, why would you go to the Fumu Mountain Port? Just stay at the Yuwang Sect. I have a close relationship with the Sect Master of Yuwang Sect. He wouldn't even hesitate to offer a guest room, and besides..."

He gritted his teeth a bit and said, "The matter of you and my family's marriage cannot be delayed. Starting from today, we must start preparing. Even if that girl of mine becomes a concubine in your family, we can't make it seem insignificant!"
